The CBR1000 sender gives approx 5 ohms for empty and 100 for full on the multimeter. I connected the speedo to the sender and found that when the sender is on full, the speedo's fuel gauge reads empty and vice versa. Bending the arm through 180 degrees means the gauge will now read the correct way round. The arm needed to be extended slightly so I used two electrical terminal connectors minus their plastic covers which would probably dissolve when immersed in fuel.
The sender has been bolted through from the inside of the tank. To stop the M6 bolts from spinning, I used a length of U-shaped aluminium section which was just the right width for the bolt heads to fit in.
